One of the main objectives of the study is to propose a pratical and realistic reliability analysis by ETCM(Expected Total Cost Minimization). This study is intended to propose the safety assesment and capacity rating of existing reinforced concrete members by evaluating the safety evaluation index, that is RF(Rating Factor) from the results of the field test and inspection for 5 reinforced concrete bridges. ETCM method is used for the reliability analysis of the proposed models. The proposed reliability model and method are applied the safety assesment and system factors of reinforced concrete members.

Edge detection is the first step and very important step in image analysis. We cast edge detection as a problem in cost minimization. This is achieved by the formulation of a cost function that evaluates the quality of edge configurations. The cost function can be used as a basis for comparing the performances of different detectors. This cost function is made of desirable characteristics of edges such as thickness, continuity, length, region dissimilarity. And we use a simulated annealing algorithm for minimum of cost function. Simulated annealing are a class of adaptive search techniques that have been intensively studied in recent years. We present five strategies for generating candidate states. Experimental results(building image and test image) which verify the usefulness of our simulated annealing approach to edge detection are better than other operator.

본 연구는 구조물의 최적안전수준과 수명기간동안 투자되는 총비용과의 상관관계를 연구하였다. 설계, 건설 및 공용 중 투자되는 총비용을 최소화하면서 최적의 안전수준을 결정하기 위하여 신뢰성해석을 수행하였다. 신뢰성해석에는 설계인자들의 불확실성과 설계 및 공사, 유지관리를 수행하는 인간의 오류 등 인적 불확실성을 확률변수로 고려하였다. 이러한 확률해석을 통한 안전지수와 생애주기비용의 상관관계를 연구하고, 생애주기비용의 분산도에 따른 안전지수의 민감도해석을 통하여 최적의 안전수준을 결정하였다. 해석결과는 이러한 평가방법이 교통시설물에 투자되는 비용을 최소화하면서 최적의 안전수준을 결정할 수 있는 정확하고 유용한 방법임을 보여주었다.

Background: The subcutaneous formulation of biologic disease-modifying antirheumatic drugs (DMARDs) was preferred due to favored self-administration and would be an economical treatment option for patients with rheumatoid arthritis. This study was to compare the economic impact of biologic DMARDs administered by subcutaneous injection in patients with rheumatoid arthritis who had inadequate response to conventional DMARDs. Methods: The cost-minimization analysis was conducted to estimate the lifetime health care costs of treatment sequences with subcutaneous biologic DMARDs as first-line therapy from a health care system perspective. The Markov model was developed to represent the transitions through treatment sequences based on American College of Rheumatology response rate and discontinuation rate. The health care costs comprised the cost of medications, administration, dispensing, outpatient visits, test/diagnostic examination, palliative therapy and treatment of serious infection. All costs were expressed in 2016 Korean Won (KRW) and discounted at 5%. Results: The mean lifetime health care cost per patient was lowest in the etanercept sequence, which was estimated at KRW 63,441,679. The incremental costs of the treatment sequence started with adalimumab, golimumab, abatacept, and tocilizumab were KRW 7,985,730, KRW 4,064,669, KRW 2,869,947, and KRW 4,282,833, respectively, relative to etanercept sequence. These differences in costs mainly were attributable to medication costs. One-way and probabilistic sensitivity analyses confirmed that etanercept represented the option with the lowest cost compared with comparators. Conclusion: This study found that etanercept is likely a cost-saving treatment option among subcutaneous biologic DMARDs in patients with rheumatoid arthritis.

The basis of the economic evaluation of vaccination is the balance between the use of the resources (input) and the improvements that result from the vaccination (output). Techniques used for economic evaluation of vaccination are cost analysis, cost-minimization analysis, cost-effectiveness analysis, cost-utility analysis and cost-benefit analysis. Cost analysis seeks to characterize the costs of a given vaccination program. Cost-effective analysis is to helps policy-makers decide on the best use of allocated resources, whether cost-benefit analysis is to helps policy-makers decide on the overall allocation of resources. Cost-utility analysis is a specific form of cost-effective analysis in which outcomes are reduced to a common denominator such as the quality-adjusted life year (QALY) or disability-adjusted life year (DALY). Many economic analyses have been conducted on vaccines in the world, but there have been a little studies on economic evaluation on vaccines in Korea. This paper reviewed the methodology used to economic evaluation on vaccines and immunizations and addressed some examples of the methods.

Though Korea has introduced CBP(Cost Based pool) power trading system since 2001, long-term Generation system planning has been executed by government for Cost minimization every 2 years. Until currently the model which is used for Generation system planning and best-mix only considers cost minimization and total yearly or quarterly electricity demand every year. In a view point of one day power supply operation, technical characteristics, like the ramp up/down rate of total generation system, minimum up/down time and GFRQ(Governor Free Response Quantity), are very important. this paper analyzes Optimal Fuel-Mix for 2022 Korea generation system satisfying these constraints of each fuel type and considering pump storage plants, construction cost and $CO_2$ emission charge Using MILP(Mixed Integer Linear Programming) method. Also the sensitivity analysis which follows in future power industry environmental change accomplished.

본 논문에서는 MANET(Mobile Ad-hoc Network) 환경에서의 보안 요구사항과 DDoS(Distributed Denial of Service) 공격방지를 위한 보호노드(게이트웨이) 설정 알고리즘을 제시한다. 이를 위하여, 정보보호를 위한 기반 기술 및 네트워크 응용기술과 보안위협을 분석하고 MANET에서 필수적으로 요구되는 보안 요구사항을 제시하며, 송신과 수신노드 사이 정보전달시 DDoS 공격을 효과적으로 방어하기 위한 보호노드 설정 알고리즘을 제시하고 성능을 분석한다. 보호노드 설정시 보호노드와 수신노드들 사이의 총링크 비용의 최대값을 최소화하는 경우와 평균비용을 최소화하는 경우로 구분하여 성능을 분석하며, 각 알고리즘의 성능을 All Enumeration 기법을 이용하여 구한 최적해와 비교, 분석한다. 분석결과, 보호노드와 수신노드들 사이의 최대비용을 이용하는 경우보다 평균비용을 이용하여 보호노드를 설정하는 경우 송신과 수신 노드들 사이의 총비용이 최소화됨을 알 수 있다.

무선 메쉬 네트워크 (Wireless Mesh Network)는 넓은 지역에 저렴한 비용으로 무선 인터넷 서비스를 제공할 수 있는 기술로 많은 관심을 받고 있다. 하지만 무선 메쉬 네트워크는 게이트웨이 주변 노드로 트래픽이 집중되는 병목현상이 발생하는 문제가 있다. 이러한 병목현상을 해결하기 위해서는 멀티 라디오를 사용하는 무선 메쉬 네트워크 구성이 필요하지만, 무분별한 안테나 설치는 전체 시스템 구축비용의 증가를 초래하게 된다. 이에 본 논문에서는 네트워크 트래픽 용량에 따라 최적화된 메쉬 클러스터 규모를 결정하고, 각 메쉬 라우터의 무선 채널 사용량에 따라 안테나 수의 차등적 배치를 통해 병목 현상 해소 및 시스템 구축비용의 최소화가 가능한 시스템 비용 최적화 모델을 제안한다. 제안 최적화 모델의 성능 분석을 위해 CPLEX를 사용해 사용자 트래픽과 게이트웨이 용량에 따른 네트워크 규모 및 최적의 안테나 수를 결정하는 최적해를 도출하였다. 그 결과 제안된 최적화 모델을 통해 멀티 라디오 무선 메쉬 네트워크 구성 시 병목 현상 해결 및 시스템 구축비용의 현저한 감소를 확인할 수 있었다.

This study conducted the decision method of lateral flow in abutment structures founded on the soft soils and the reliability analysis on the foundation pile for abutment. On the basis of the results, this study proposed the reliability design model. Reliability analysis was conducted by applying second moment method, point estimation method, and expected total cost minimization to lateral movement index, lateral movement decision index, modified lateral movement decision index, and circular failure safety factor for the decision criteria of lateral flow. The reliability index by analysis method had a similar tendency each other. Point estimation method was found as a practical method in the aspect of convenience because it could conduct the analysis only by mean and standard deviation as well as the partial derivative on random variables was not necessary. Optimum reliability index and optimum safety according to increasing in failure factors and load ratio were analyzed and loads and resistance factors of the design criteria of optimum reliability were estimated. It presented rational design model which can consider construction level and stability and economical efficiency overall.
